<h2>KUALA LUMPUR, 28 April 2025 — In support of Malaysia’s youth employment goals, Hiredly today launches a bold new initiative allowing all employers on its platform to post<a href="https://my.hiredly.com/internship-jobs?utm_medium=article&amp;utm_source=career_advice&amp;utm_campaign=freemium_blog_post" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> internship jobs</a>&nbsp;completely free of charge.&nbsp;</h2><figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.hiredly.com/cms/106408902_1582655595706gettyimages_936365986_4d198c4077.jpg"></figure>This move is designed to encourage companies of all sizes create internship opportunities for our youth, while also aligning with the&nbsp;Malaysian government’s 1:3 Practical Training Policy, which came into effect earlier this year.<h3>Answering the Call: Hiredly Backs Malaysia’s Internship Mandate</h3>In February 2025, the Malaysian government introduced a new policy requiring companies to provide up to&nbsp;three paid, structured internship placements for local students for every expatriate Employment Pass (EP) issued. This “<a href="https://hr.asia/asean/companies-are-required-to-hire-up-to-3-interns-for-every-expat-in-malaysia/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">1:3 Practical Training Policy</a>” aims to generate over&nbsp;100,000 internship opportunities annually and bridge the gap between classroom learning and real-world industry demands.Hiredly’s latest initiative directly supports this effort by removing the cost barrier associated with internship hiring, making it easier than ever for employers to take part in developing the next generation of professionals.<h3>Why Companies Should Create More Internship Opportunities</h3>Bringing interns on board is a great way for companies to grow and give back at the same time. Interns often bring fresh ideas, a lot of energy, and the enthusiasm to learn. They can help spot things others might miss and offer new ways of looking at everyday work. It’s also a chance to guide and get to know young talent who might become full-time team members down the road.&nbsp;Most of all, hiring interns shows that a company cares about building up local talent and helping the next generation take their first steps into the working world.“We believe that giving young people real work experience is one of the most meaningful ways a company can contribute to the future. Interns bring fresh energy and new ideas, and in return, we get to guide and grow the next generation of talent. It’s a win-win for businesses, for students, and for the future of our workforce,” said&nbsp;<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/derektoh/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Derek Toh, CEO of Hiredly</a>. “We hope that by making it free for companies to advertise internships on Hiredly, we will create more opportunities for our youth.”<h3>How It Works</h3><figure class="image"><img src="https://assets.hiredly.com/cms/istockphoto_1462936293_612x612_19e273eb8a_49309d8b6a.jpg"></figure>Getting started is simple, and it comes with real benefits.
